Add an explicit note pointing out that sched_process_exit tracepoint is,
conceptually, related to sched_process_template and should be kept in
sync (though, on the best effort basis).
This is a follow-up to [0], and can hopefully be just folded in when applying.

Thanks, I've folded this into the tracepoint patch, with this small edit: s/sched_process_exits /sched_process_exit Ingo
